In a table format show with calculations and research how much money you can save by installing a 115mm layer of insulation (R2.9) in your walls, floor and ceiling over a 5 and 10 year period. Consider the capital costs. Hint: State the current R value of each component. Convert to U value. Calculate new R value of each component (walls, floor and ceiling). Convert to U value. Use Q(W)=A*(change in U)*temperature change. Determine price for installation of new insulation. Determine price saved based on less heat loss through each component separately, then add all values together, and calculate per 5 years and per 10 years. Present all of this information in a table. You do not need to draw any diagrams, simply add the R value in series with your current components R values.

- 2.30 An electrical heater capable of generating 10,000 W is to be designed. The heating element is to be a stainless steel wire having an electrical resistivity of ohm-centimeter. The operating temperature of the stainless steel is to be no more than 1260°C. The heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is expected to be no less than in a medium whose maximum temperature is 93°C. A transformer capable of delivering current at 9 and 12 V is available. Determine a suitable size for the wire, the current required, and discuss what effect a reduction in the heat transfer coefficient would have. (Hint: Demonstrate first that the temperature drop between the center and the surface of the wire is independent of the wire diameter, and determine its value.)arrow_forward1.3 A furnace wall is to be constructed of brick having standard dimensions of Two kinds of material are available.
